I've lost enthusiasm for Julia ever since she bashed her sister (who committed suicide and blamed it on Julia's treatment of her) during her funeral.

That being said, maybe Julia's part will be small.

(Truly did not like her in August Osage County) well to be fair, I wasn't too thrilled with Merle Streep either. Or maybe it was that I hated the film and the family dynamic co much that it just left a bad taste in my mouth! HA!

Still, am looking forward to this film, especially since Jodie is directing. Hopefully, it will have better success than her "Beaver" film.
